Xan had been running away his whole life. Even if he didn't want to admit it he was exactly like his younger brother and father. He always chose to turn a blind eye to things that inconvenience him and anything that didn't exist between the strict lines of his so-called royal duty was unwanted. Lun was not a duty, he was not something that was assigned to him but still he just couldn't look away. For years he hadn't been able to.
When he had heard that he was going to be sent to the human world to search for Kai he hadn't said anything, he couldn't really but his mind was an utter mess. He couldn't stop worrying, wondering what he would be doing and how his life was going to go one without him around annoying him. At first he had thought it had just been a habit, something he would have to stop but as the days passed the crown prince realized that his days had become quite dull.
That was why he had volunteered to leave the palace, without everyone knowing he was the one that offered to go and deal with that stupid Alpha hoping that he would cross paths with him and as he had planned Xan and Lun had been united again.
Right now all of his little attempts to be around him, all those time he denied to himself that he didn't like him seemed so stupid and childish seeing how he had been teleporting everywhere in the palace just to find him and make sure he was okay, leaving the whole palace to burn if he cared. Nothing mattered if Lun was not well.
After about twenty minutes the prince managed to find him in Kai's room. The young vampire was laid on the floor, his blood drenching the expensive carpet as he breathed slowly. The rip in his chest was healing, slowly.
"Lun." he called out, rushing towards him and falling to his knees right by his side. His pants were painted red, his lover's blood everywhere around. He looked pale, even paler than usual while black circles had appeared underneath his eyes. He wanted to do something, anything so he could help him but he just stood there, his hands in the air as he tried to think. "Can you hear me?" he asked him, his voice loud.
"Yes, your voice is piercing my eardrums." Lun answered, his voice rough like sandpaper.
"Are you alright?" he asked, sounding utterly ridiculous and Lun rolled his eyes.
"Great really, you know, chilling on the floor." he answered him and Xan bit his bottom lip.
"Sorry, sorry…" he said. "Is there anything I can do?"
"Give me some of your blood to heal." Lun said, joking. He wouldn't dare to ask Xan for his blood. He was a pureblood. It could be considered an insult and if they weren't lovers the prince could even have him executed. In general vampires drinking blood from each other was considered taboo in a way, something that was looked down on. Silence spread in the room and without even looking at him the tall vampire could tell Xan was shocked by his suggestion. Lun wanted to laugh but it hurt too much, even the thought of it was painful actually. "Calm down I was just jok…"
"Okay." Xan said, cutting his sentence in half and Lun's eyes widened.
"Are you serious?" He asked him, unable to believe in what he had just agreed to. "You don't have to…"
"I said it's okay." Xan said, his tone stern as he looked at Lun in the eyes. He brought his palm to his cheek, gently caressing it and smiled. "I love you, I would do anything for you, I may not be the best at showing it but this…I will only ever do this for you." he told him, removing his hand from his cheek and bringing forth his fangs. He bit the inside of his grip, hard, opening two perfectly round cuts that ooze with his royal blood. Lun could smell it, he could almost taste it, the warmth of blood that would heal him, make him feel as if nothing happened. The prince brought his wrist to his lips, his skin feeling soft as it touched his dry lips. "Drink" the prince told him and Lun felt it slip into his mouth, sweet, getting down his throat and his eyes widened, his hand pressuring Xan's harder into his lips as his wounds began to heal. He still couldn't believe that Xan would do something like that for him. As his wound disappeared, as the pain lessened bit by bit and his mind wasn't hazy anymore he could see Xan more clearly.
His worried expression, his furrowed eyebrows as he looked at him, hoping that he would be alright. The prince really did love him. Up until now he hadn't really allowed himself to believe that but at this moment, his face, this gesture said it all. Lun was alright, he would be alright, he thought as he stopped drinking, his wounds completely healed by now. He removed Xan's hand from his lips, tears in his dark eyes.
"Why are you crying? Does my blood taste that bad?" The crown prince asked him.
"You love me." Lun stated sitting up and found himself close to him, so close the tip of their noses almost touched. "You really love me."
"Of course I do, I have loved you for a while now." Xan answered. "Was it that hard to believe?" he asked and Lun scoffed.
"Do you blame me?"
"No, not really. I could never." The white haired prince answered him, caressing his cheek once more. "But hear me out…" the prince said, a faint smile on his lips. "I love you." he said, slowly so Lun could hear every word clearly. He moved in closer, his lips landing gently on his and bringing him into an emotion filled kiss. Xan hugged him, letting Lun rest his head on his shoulder so he could feel the weight of his body on his. The prince smiled, finally relieved. "Don't do anything stupid again. All you do is stupid things."
"I won't. You know, when Loyd tried to kill me for a second I thought that I wasn't scared to die. For a split second I remember that I had always believed I would live a short life but then your face came to my mind and I…I desperately wanted to live, just to be around you." Lun told him, making Xan look at him. This time the prince was the one crying.
"You are the biggest idiot I have ever met and you need to stop doing this?"
"Doing what?" Lun asked with a chuckle.
"Turning more and more to everything I ever wanted.." Xan said.
